"Below" by whose standards? Yours?
Newsflash: They don't' care what you think, nor do you actually KNOW where they are in their life.
The point of this thread was those persons who were socially and academically superior to me in H.S. ended up below me afterwards!!!!!

If they are working at the Dollar Store or incarcerated, that's pretty certain....
Actually, the point doesn't seem to only be pointing out where they ended up but deriding them as well. It's the latter that is unnecessary and reveals how bitter you are about your high school experience.

How do you know? Solar panels are hugely incentivized right now so there's money to be made. It's possible he's an independent contractor setting his own hours/rates and coming away with a nice amount of small business write offs.
People flock to this country by the millions have control over their lives and run their own businesses. That's more than a cube monkey or disposable middle manager can say.
It's understandable. People treat you like shit and make your life miserable, I think many would get some secret enjoyment(or not so secret) out of them doing not so well/losing their looks.Actually, the point doesn't seem to only be pointing out where they ended up but deriding them as well.

It's also quite possible that job is VERY low stress and gives him the flexibility to see his kids more often and to know that when he's done with a job at the end of the day he doesn't have to think about it anymore. I wouldn't mind those benefits.

Or when he does get called, it's at $80 an hour instead of "Suck it up, you're on salary bitch!" that us corporate suckers signed on for for call and after hours stuff.
I could understand those motivations when I was younger but I would never grow if my goal were finding validation through the perceived troubles of others.
Considering a 3.5 ~= B+ yeah, that is crap. High school was a fucking joke and a half for me and I have no idea how it actually qualifies people to live in the real world, unless you take mainly all AP courses and plan to go into engineer/sciences/health fields.
Also, a true nerd would have a 4.0, hands down, no questions.
Result of thread: OP was unpopular in HS, and now, based on his response in this thread, we can see why.

Went to my 25th and there were a couple that were still decent but most of them looked like hell. The guys too.I went to my 10 year reunion and the hot chick I had a crush on was still hot. Time granted me the ability to see she was pretty dumb though
True but were you or any of our other "well adjusted" posters subjected to abuse in H.S. or at home or in relationships, etc? It's pretty easy to be critical of others (not pointing a finger at you) if you haven't been in their shoes. I know I've done it.I could understand those motivations when I was younger but I would never grow if my goal were finding validation through the perceived troubles of others.
Why so bitter? Nothing will change the fact you were a nerd and a loser in high school.

I just went back to hourly and its the greatest goddamn thing in the world.
Before working weekends when needed was just part of the job. Now I get time and a half plus 4 hours of base pay every time I have to work a weekend. Need to upgrade the VMs on Saturday? Hell yeah I'll volunteer!
